Fees

Fees

My standard fees are £25 per hour pro rata, plus expenses.

There is a minimum charge of £25 for a single look-up or record retrieval.

For more open-ended projects, such as researching the life of an individual ancestor, tracing a lineage or building a family tree, fees are tailored to suit each assignment. A budget limit for the first piece of research is agreed, and a small deposit is normally requested in advance.
